Community Tasting Notes (5) Avg Score: 91.8 points

  • 91-2+ good showing with good concentration and fruit and already showing nice complexity. Somewhat open more so than I thought it would be but still has tannins and acidity that need to shed for it to show its best. Excellent qpr. Very nice to taste next to their hcdn as they both showcase the difference between the two regions. Both are enjoyable and both are well worth owning. The hcdb had more complexity while the hcdn had more muscle but still have plenty of complexity

  • 92-93+ nice Ruby color. Cherry slightly tomato bouquet with a hint of smoke and Earth. Medium bodied with good concentrated fruit, excellent balance, good acidity and tannins. Flavors of dark cherry, tart cherry, tomato, Earth with a long acidic finish. Approachable now that still is not at peak. Likely best from 2028 to 2031 or longer. Excellent qpr.

  • Nice light to medium Ruby color. Beautiful bouquet of strawberries, red cherries and raspberries. Light to medium Bodied with a lot of acidity but some really good fruit that still shows through indicating that one can drink with pleasure now but when they said he falls there will be even more revealed and to enjoy. Concentrated flavors of red cherries and earth. Nice complexity. Long finish. Likely best from 2026 to 2031, possibly to 2036. Excellent QPR. will reward cellaring

  • 92-93. Nice bright ruby color. Intense bouquet of cherries, strawberries, raspberries, spice, fresh earth. Medium bodied, concentrated, well balanced. Concentrated flavors of cherry, spice, peppers, tomatoes, fresh earth. Lots of acid and tannins (more than the Aloxe-Corton). While very enjoyable and approachable, it is not wide open like the Aloxe-Corton, but has some restraint and the tannins and acid are definitely hiding some good stuff. Best from 2025-2031, possibly 2036. Has fruit, structure, acid and tannins to age. Delicious now, should get even better with age. Both this and the Aloxe are similar and different at the same time. BOTH are worth owning. Good QPR
